• Kevin Harris: Sticks around in New England

  08/28/2024 • By RotoWire

  Harris signed with the Patriots' practice squad Wednesday, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports. There was no room for Harris on the Pats' 53-man roster after he lost out to JaMycal Hasty for the No. 3 running back job behind Rhamondre Stevenson and Antonio Gibson. Harris has played in nine regular-season games for the Patriots since being selected in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, and during that span he rushed for 117 yards and two touchdowns on 34 carries. Harris will stay in New England and be ready for a potential promotion to the active roster during the upcoming season.

• Kevin Harris: Set to be cut by New England

  08/27/2024 • By RotoWire

  The Patriots plan to waive Harris, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports. As the coming season approaches, Rhamondre Stevenson and Antonio Gibson top the Patriots' RB depth chart, with JaMycal Hasty also in the mix. For now, Harris is the odd man out, but he could resurface on the team's practice squad, assuming he clears waivers.

• Patriots' Kevin Harris: Projected No. 3 RB

  08/10/2024 • By RotoWire

  Harris carried eight times for 22 yards and a TD and caught one of his three targets for six yards in Thursday's 17-3 preseason win over the Panthers. In his latest 53-man roster projection, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site predicts that Harris will stick as the team's No. 3 running back to begin the coming season behind Rhamondre Stevenson and Antonio Gibson. Per Lazar, Harris -- a 2022 sixth-rounder -- "won't 'wow' you with elusiveness or pass-catching ability, but he runs hard between the tackles and has displayed better vision working off zone blocks." Also competing for depth slotting in New England's backfield are JaMycal Hasty and Terrell Jennings, and one or both could potentially end up on the practice squad following cut-downs.

• Patriots' Kevin Harris: Makes impact as receiver

  12/31/2023 • By RotoWire

  Harris carried the ball twice for 15 yards and caught both his targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 27-21 loss to the Bills. The 2022 sixth-round pick helped set up a Bailey Zappe rushing TD in the second quarter with a 48-yard catch and run that got the Patriots into the red zone. Harris has seen his first significant stretch of NFL action over the last three games while Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) has been sidelined, and Sunday's catches were the first of his career. Over those three games, Harris has picked up 115 scrimmage yards and a rushing TD on 15 touches while backing up Ezekiel Elliott, a role he should fill again in Week 18 against the Jets.

• Patriots' Kevin Harris: Signed to active roster

  12/20/2023 • By RotoWire

  The Patriots signed Harris to their active roster from their practice squad Tuesday. Harris will join New England's active roster after spending the entire season on its practice squad. In his only appearance this season, the 23-year-old carried the ball four times for 25 yards and a touchdown during last week's loss to the Chiefs, and he could continue to serve as the primary backup to Ezekiel Elliott if Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) misses more time.
